In a recent blog post from Pretend they announced that they are adding support for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate so that it can be played online again, despite them not saying it Monster Hunter 4G is also online.
The servers are in closed beta for the time being.
I asked around in the tester channels and they were able to enable online multiplayer between the versions!

Re: Pretendo MH4U and MH4G online closed beta
Multiplayer is fairly stable between the 2 versions with only a few problems that will pop up.
- When posting 4G events 4U players cannot see the quest name, objective, fail condition, or description as 4U lacks support for UTF-8 with text appearing as ? in 4U
- 4G event weapons will be displayed as dummy### for 4U players and will use the default iron model for that weapon type
- 4U event weapons will be displayed as dummy for 4G players and will use the default iron model for that weapon type
- When either version exchanges guild cards, many stats on them will appear broken
- 4U can type more characters in messages than what 4G can display as 4G has a 15 character limit
- 4U players can obtain dummy items from some 4G events including JUMPタル爆弾 / JUMP Bomb the item will be labeled as dummy but can be used
